Quick start

Open your first document in two minutes — then read it five ways and put it to work.

Open a document

Pandia opens to a start screen. From there you can:

1. Paste data into the paste box — it auto-detects JSON, YAML, XML, CSV or cURL and converts it.
2. Drag and drop a file anywhere onto the window.
3. Open a file from disk.
4. Fetch from a URL (with optional headers).
5. Click load demo data to try it with a sample document.

Your recent files are pinned on the start screen, so you can jump straight back into them.

Find your way around

Once a document is open, here's the layout:

• Document tabs across the top — switch between open files.
• A left sidebar with Outline, Schema, Types and History panels — toggle it with ⌘B.
• The view switcher: Tree ⌘1, Code ⌘2, Grid ⌘3, Graph ⌘4.
• A status bar showing the selected path, its type, the document size and whether it's valid.
• The command palette ⌘K — your way to everything.

Read it
